    intrastate pipeline companies and local distribution companies
    in the transportation and storage of natural gas. In the
    Northeast, ANR competes with other interstate pipelines serving
    electric generation and local distribution companies. ANR also
    competes directly with other interstate pipelines, including
    Guardian Pipeline, for markets in Wisconsin. We Energies owns an
    interest in Guardian, which is currently serving a portion of
    its firm transportation requirements.
    ANR also competes directly with numerous pipelines and gathering
    systems for access to new supply sources. ANRs principal
    supply sources are the Rockies and mid-continent production
    accessed in Kansas and Oklahoma, western Canadian production
    delivered to the Chicago area and Gulf of Mexico sources,
    including deepwater production and LNG imports.

    Contract terms expire in 2006. |  | CIG serves two major markets. Its on-system market
    consists of utilities and other customers located along the
    front range of the Rocky Mountains in Colorado and Wyoming. Its
    off- system market consists of the transportation of
    Rocky Mountain production from multiple supply basins to
    interconnections with other pipelines bound for the Midwest, the
    Southwest, California and the Pacific Northwest. Competition for
    its on-system market consists of local production from the
    Denver-Julesburg basin, an intrastate pipeline, and long-haul
    shippers who elect to sell into this market rather than the
    off-system market. Competition for its off-system market
    consists of other interstate pipelines that are directly
    connected to its supply sources.

    pipeline for its mainline supply from several producing basins.
    WICs one Bcf/d Medicine Bow lateral is the primary source

    supply and can readily be expanded as supply increases.
    Currently, there are two other interstate pipelines that
    transport limited volumes out of this basin.

|(1) | Gross interest reflects the total number of wells we
    participated in, regardless of our ownership interests in the
    wells.
|(2) | Net interest is the aggregate of the fractional working interest
    that we have in our gross wells.                            
|(3) | Excludes two wells in Brazil that are not currently producing
    due primarily to regional infrastructure constraints.

| | Rocky Mountain expansions. In order to provide an outlet
    for the growing supply of Rocky Mountain natural gas to markets
    in the Midwest region of the United States, we have several
    expansion projects that will increase our transportation
    capacity, subject to regulatory approval, as follows: |

| |  | Cheyenne Plains Gas Pipeline commenced free-flow operations in
    December 2004 and as of January 31, 2005 is fully
    in-service. Approval has already been received for Cheyenne
    Plains Phase II which will add an additional
    179 MMcf/d of capacity that is scheduled to be available by
    the end of 2005. | 
|
| |  | CIGs Raton Basin 2005 Expansion will add 104 MMcf/d
    of capacity that is scheduled to be available by the end of 2005.                                                                                                                                                                                                 |

| | Other expansions. On our ANR system we continue to
    experience intense competition along its mainline corridors;
    however, it is well-positioned to provide transportation service
    from discoveries in the deepwater Gulf of Mexico and LNG supply
    growth along the Gulf Coast. These new supplies are expected to
    offset the continued decline of production from the Gulf of
    Mexico shelf. Additionally, ANR is proceeding with its Eastleg
    and Northleg expansions in its Wisconsin market area. |

| |  | Average daily production. During 2004, our average daily
    production was 334 MMcfe/d (excluding discontinued Canadian
    and other international operations of 15 MMcfe/d).                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    
|
| |  | Capital expenditures of $291 million (excluding
    discontinued Canadian and other international expenditures of
    $29 million). During the first quarter of 2004, we
    experienced disappointing drilling results. As a result, we
    significantly reduced our drilling activities and instituted a
    new, more rigorous, risk analysis program, with an emphasis on
    strict capital discipline. During 2004, we drilled 27 wells
    with an 81 percent success rate.

| |  | Sale of Canadian and other international operations.
    These operations were sold in order to focus our operations in
    the United States and Brazil.

|(1) | Gross margins consist of operating revenues less cost of
    products sold. We believe this measurement is more meaningful
    for understanding and analyzing our Field Services
    segments operating results because commodity costs play
    such a significant role in the determination of profit from our
    midstream activities.

|(1) | For our regulated interstate systems, we use the composite
    (group) method to depreciate property, plant and equipment.
    Under this method, assets with similar useful lives and other
    characteristics are grouped and depreciated as one asset. We
    apply the depreciation rate approved in our rate settlements to
    the total cost of the group until its net book value equals its
    salvage value. We re-evaluate depreciation rates each time we
    redevelop our transportation rates when we file with the FERC
    for an increase or decrease in rates.

|(1) | The expected return on plan assets is a pre-tax rate (before a
    tax rate ranging from 35 percent to 39 percent on
    other postretirement benefits) that is primarily based on an
    expected risk-free investment return, adjusted for historical
    risk premiums and specific risk adjustments associated with our
    debt and equity securities. These expected returns were then
    weighted based on our target asset allocations of our investment
    portfolio. For 2005, the assumed expected return on assets for
    pension benefits will be reduced to 8 percent.
|(2) | In 2003, our pension plan was closed to new participants and, as
    a result, it provides benefits solely to former employees.

|(1) | Includes eliminations of intercompany transactions. Our
    intersegment revenues, along with our intersegment operating
    expenses, were incurred in the normal course of business between
    our operating segments. We recorded an intersegment revenue
    elimination of $55 million and an operation and maintenance
    elimination of less than $1 million, which is included in
    the Corporate column, to remove intersegment
    transactions.
|(2) | Revenues from external customers include gains and losses
    related to our hedging of price risk associated with our natural
    gas and oil production.
